Sandra Newman Lloyd, Riverton's first female mayor, longtime community servant and pageant director, died Monday, July 25, 2005, following a battle with a rare blood disease. She was 70 years old.
Mrs. Lloyd was born in Riverton on Feb. 22, 1935, to Mabel Jean Langford Newman and Moss Newman. She attended Riverton Elementary, Riverton Junior High and Jordan High School.
She married Robert E. Lloyd in September 1955. The couple has three children and five grandchildren.
Mrs. Lloyd served as a PTA president, worked as a wedding consultant and held secretarial positions before being appointed Riverton city recorder in 1980, a post she held 14 years. She took office as the first female mayor of Riverton in 1994 and served two terms, during which she successfully pushed to save the former Heber and Mary Jane Crane home, which is now the Riverton Museum, and the old Riverton Elementary School, which now houses city government.
Mrs. Lloyd was heavily involved in pageants. Involved in the Miss America organization, she was the Miss Riverton pageant director for three decades and traveled the state as a judge, most recently in this year's Days of '47 pageant.
